Thanks for the suggestion about the support hose. My right foot and my stomach
swell.
What helps bloating of the stomach? I have cut my Lyrica down to 2x
(75mg) from
3x a day, but it hasn't helped the swelling any. My legs still burn a little,
but today I got sunburned and they are on
Does anyone, other than me, find it very scary to think of somebody who finds
that they no longer have feeling in their legs and feet but decides to drive
themselves to the emergency hospital?? I myself was paralyzed waist to toes on
both sides, so it wouldn't have even been possible for me
ya and what i think is funny is how many people will come up to me in the
winter ask where my shoes are then perceed to tell me it's cold out.. REALLY?
frozen ground and it's cold out! WOW! then I thank them for the weather up
date... I feel the cold but the pain of anything touching my feet
that's great!

Hey guys!! I found my first advantage to having TM. I had 3
misquito bites on my legs and, if

Hi Todd,
My feet and lower legs burn 24/7 and have since tm hit me on 8/13/95.
Doesn't matter if they are swollen or not,the burning is always the same
intensity. It never changes.

When I started having the mid sternal chest pain,I thought it was
indigestion;when it became severe I thought maybe a heart attack. I never
thought of driving myself,my daughter took me. If I had been alone,I would have
called an ambulance.

I was working as a B-lineman in line construction, I fell out of a 95¹

I can't imagine your situation with your feet.The shoes are the first thing
to go off when I get home, but it isn't really pain I feel.Part of it is
being a typical

I had a blood clot too when I was in the hospital - in my lung.Had to
wear the hose for several months - hated them.My husband
had to help me put them on every morning. I didn't have the strength it
took to do it.Hated them in the summer time especially.
I realize they are
Hey Janice,
Please tell Eddy, that he's our hero too.
Because we can't imagine not having you on this website.
So he is already use to you moving slowly. LOL
Glad Eddy was able to move you away from harms way.

Hey Priscilla,
If you're able to submerge your sunburn in a bathtub for 30 minutes,
Put 2 cups of Espon Salt into your warm bath water ,
because the water will get colder after a few minutes.
Too bad this doesn't work on burning feet. lol
Hope you're feeling better very soon,

It is the right foot that swells, the right arm and hip are larger, and the
right side of my face is larger than the left side. It's so strange. I would
have trouble pulling up the hose since my hands and arms are so weak and I
can't
move my fingers. My caregiver could do it though.
Thanks, Todd, I'll try that! I wanted to add that scented lotions make my legs
burn more, especially lavender scented. Thanks for the reply.
Have a wonderful day!
